Headed into 'true test' at Sedro Woolley, Mount Si's mat masters on a roll
Mount Si Dec 07 2012, 4:38 PM Tim Corrie wasn't expecting his Interlake opponent to take a shot right at the whistle. He reacted, fast all the same. The 182-pounder, Jonathan Palagashvili, went for Corrie's legs. Tim went for the headlock, and made his pin in a minute-55. It was his third in a season that's included two decisions and four occasions when he was unanswered on the mat. "I want to keep my undefeated streak," the senior says. Something's clicking for the Mount Si wrestling team right now.

According to sheriff's spokesperson Cindi West, the man began an hours-long rant around 2:30 a.m. Monday in the Fall City Mobile Park in the 4300 block of Preston-Fall City Road, and became so aggressive by about 6:30 that "multiple" neighbors called 911. "We understand from a witness that about 2:30, he was outside yelling 'it's the end of the world!'" West said.

That land, now zoned as rural, would have become a retail development serving the still-growing community, in Snoqualmie’s most recent proposal to modify its UGA through the King County Comprehensive Plan.
